It's easy to just get on with as people say but eventually it gets tiresome and, speaking for myself, it just makes you steadily drift away from participating at all.

Just as bad are the five or six posters who feel as though they need to have the last comment on every single topic started up to the point where you see their username and you can't even read what they've wrote because all you can see in your head is beige.


Well arguing in general is nothing new, hell I'm definitely one of the worse in that department, it's just that people get way too personal now. And gang up on people. I'm not down with that. And I've always enjoyed the witty banter we often get up to here but calling people names is just not witty.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

Why not take a fucking chill pill and quit calling out folks you've never met as racist, inconsiderate, sexist pussies? It's not becoming i can assure you.

cheers


Serious question. If Ant joined Al Qaeda, would follow?

Better yet more up your alley, do you enjoy the taste of Ants penis?

More direct right?

Cheers


Was the Herbal commentary aimed in part at the conversation i was having on here about the use of the term "spastic"? A: Yes it was.

Put down the haterade and get a glass of water. You must be dehydrated because you aren't thinking clearly.

I have no clue what you just said. In fact other than this spat I can honestly say I wouldn't know who Herb is.

I was just asking if Ant and yourself have a long term, very open man on man relationship going on?

When there was ganging up it used to be on issue without the nasty personal abuse. It goes way beyond a bit of frustrated name calling now. I can recall arguing up and down the board for days about Barton and there would be the odd tantrum but not organised viciousness!

I just clicked on "see post" to see Carl proved my point very well. Carl - You and your cyber-thug clique don't take me seriously you say, yet you see the need to attack again and again. Then think you and the other perps speak for everyone. That's because you are arrogant as well as small minded.

One of the people you seemed to be protecting in this thread, is amongst the worst offenders on the board, & now others are using it as an excuse to try & get 'one up' on other posters, thinking they have a license because they are somehow on the side of the righteous.

Nobody in this thread has any more right to get on a high horse than anyone else imo, EVERYONE is guilty of this stuff from time to time.

It's senseless, cruel bullying of the worst kind and no, I don't claim to be a hard man just a bloke who hates to see bullying and I'm not in the least bit worried about meeting the guy because I know, just as you do, that he'll be meek and mild while in public. Let's face it, he might get away with his language if he were attending a ku klux klan meeting but he wouldn't get away with it in public and it shouldn't be supported on here because it's wrong and it's an embarrassment to City fans.

PS. And Carl, don't be silly you're better than that.


I disagree completely.

Carl is not better than that. Not even a little bit.

FFS i will be glad when pre-season starts.


isn't there some breeding to be done instead of posting on here? Surely there's a vagina somewhere looking for some baby batter.

cheers

Sorry to piss on your parade old chap but i posted a thread about 4 years ago in off topic about having the snip.Do try to keep up Mike.

Cheers.

No, you don't gang up on people or follow them around the board hurling abuse at virtually everything they write. You don't insult people with references to race, disability, mental illness or inferences of pedophilia. You may tell someone to fuck off sometimes, that's not the same thing at all. We aren't talking about quick blow-ups and moving on. We are talking about serial serious and systematic abusers.

It was a joke gillie ya muppet. And I'm pretty sure CARLOS saw it as that.

This meet up you're organising could be epic by the time it rolls around :)

Is it worse to provoke or react? Because most of those who sit on their high horse giving out about reactions are the very ones who poked and prodded until someone reacted.

It takes two to tango. I love arguing and the amount of bait I've taken over the years is phenomenal. But the bait was left by the cunt in the first place.

Noble sentiments only slightly undone by a later post.....

One other thing, as a foreigner I've supported this club close to thirty years.

There was a lot of this cock waving and bragging about how many away games you've been to at the Liverpool forum i used to hang out on as well. That's why I came here! But if this continues I might have to find another club, which appreciate its fans, no matter where they are from or how long they've chosen to support the club.

Btw, I have a bunch of City shirts from the last years that I'd sell for a friendly price if I decide to move on. PM me!

I call bullshit on this thread. The kind of behaviour currently on the board has been ever-present.

Short memories some of you. Check some old threads. There's always been drama, always been a villain. And when there hasn't cue threads about how quiet the board is.

Just get on with it, fuclers.

the absolute opposite

too many people don't take seriously enough their responsibility to manage their online behaviour.
Never criticise a man until you've walked a mile in his shoes.
That way when you do criticise him you'll be a mile away.
And you'll have his shoes.
